Questions

I ask a lot of questions, so I will make this thread to keep the organized and in one thread. Don't delete it again please. Thank you

My first question is what is your favorite type of tire? Pattern, cost, durability and use?

I like a tire that comes with a mileage rating? Tires that don't have mileage ratings usually are not covered by the manufacturer if something goes wrong with them.

I mean they're wide an low pro if that means anything. Good tread pattern plenty of grip and a fairly good price ya know. They look like a tire lol. Depending on what size run they're going on is really how they're gunna look but they're made for you know high performance cars so hell yea they look good.


About 9 months old. Plenty of tread left they're not rock hard or dry rotted an with a little tire shine they really stand out....aaand they say xtreme on the side

Very good tires for the price. And just to inform anyone who is answering joshy here. He is a teenager who got his license a short time ago and he loves mustangs. He asks ALOT of questions so please don't give him too hard a time. And i do mean alot of questions he will likely ask hundreds of them. So instead of starting 100 different threads he will post them just in this one.He is a good kid with a big heart so please just help guide him here. Thanks TMS members

Nice car man. I like the color. Are your headlights foggy or is that just a bad pic? Is it a manual or automatic? What's Your plans with those wheels lol I'd either paint them with that black chrome wheel paint, just black or get different ones. Those aren't Mustang wheels right? Have you decided on a color scheme? And last but not
Least you chose a nice model year Mustang. The easiest one to make look mean and aggressive in my opinion. Are you trying to mod it an make it perform better or look good or both?

Well first the lights are foggy. I need to sand them again. Second its an auto. The wheels are chrome AmericanRacing and they really go with the car nicely so I plan on leaving them alone. My cold scheme is light gray and dark blue with a touch of chrome here and there. And I love it. I have dual BORLA stingers right now and a CAI. I need a tuner. I plan on putting some stripes down it and buffing it out or maybe just buffing it out.
